05-31-13 Deadly Superstorm Twister Chasers

closed course test drive
radical crash replacement
value destruction reaction
jump to the middle road
flying through the ages
at the speed of lightning
faster than sound waves
with the crackle of thunder
lost inside a multiple vortex
tornado wrapped in a ring of rain
vicious wind and hail blowing
maximum intensity damages
storm ravaged devastation
soaring to great new heights
standing in the debris field
humbled straight to the heart
so small in the eyes of the universe




       
   

05-30-13 Dancing Barefoot On The Lawn

Destiny turning in a twist of fate
Unbound energy exploding from above
Musical vibrations in the warm fresh air
Bubbles of sound popping around us

Colorful balloons bursting in bunches
Glitter sparkles and fluorescent glow sticks
The glorious thrill of excitement flowing
Sweet maple syrup oozing like hot liquid




       

05-29-13 Subway Graffiti Haiku

Beautiful artwork
Hidden inside dark tunnels
Waiting to be seen





       

05-28-13 Mind Control Experiments

stuck in a thick fog
frozen in slow motion
walking underwater
head in the clouds

flashback forward again
too late to block the punch
vivid visions in transition
speechless out of reach

strange pictures changing shapes
colors take on a deep new meaning
simple thoughts exploding into fire
watching the walls melt away

hallucinations creeping in
cartoon wonderland fantasies
feels like time is moving too fast
speeding up in suspended animation




       

05-27-13 Flying Saucer Freak Out

Lost in the fantastic atmosphere
Out of fuel and playing it cool
We can't survive on this planet
We are not alone in the universe

Drinking milk in outer space
Growing seeds of life into forests
Suspended in time moving slowly
Running around with evil robots

Back home on planet Earth
The sunrise comes right on time
Skies are blue on a lazy afternoon
The stage is set for an alien invasion





       

05-26-13 Sacred Garden Of Soul

broken walls crumbled
but the energy remains
steal beams absorbed
intense shockwaves

historic ghosts linger on
roaming the corridors
when the lights go out
after all the excitement

images of yesterday
in old archival photos
locked deep in the vault
behind a secret passageway

vibrations deep inside the core
electricity crackles in the air
the stage is set to start the show
the roar of the crowd echoes forever

05-25-13 In The Eyes Of Enlightenment

Marinated in electric freedom

Saturated in blood of knowledge

Radiated in the glow of peace

Overrated in the court of pop culture

05-24-13 Subway Encounter With A Wizard

I ran into the Dragon Master
on an uptown train this afternoon
but we did not discuss his magic
instead we recalled that fateful night
so long ago before the dawn of man
in the middle of a ferocious blizzard
when the union of souls was joined
in an affirmation of everlasting love

We talked so long he missed his stop
so he summoned the winds of infinity
to transport him back to Central Park
in the heart of an incredible imagination




         

05-23-13 Hidden Artifacts Of Lost Civilizations

Dragons in a cave
Under the waterfall
Guarding knowledge
Passed down directly
From ancient gods
Who fell from stars
But beyond the treasure
Of gold and rubies
There is a powerful
Energy of  beauty
Waiting for the day
When it will rule
The wide wild world




 

05-22-13 Bohemian Beats

We saw visions
of golden angels
up in the trees

They came down
and sat beside us
to dry our tears

Theater of the mind
recording dreams
enlightened darkness

Reflective journey
behind locked doors
electrified inside screams
shocked beyond words

Shedding light
through the forests
at dawn quietly
illuminated

A sacred vow
to take a leap
of faith and trust
into the abyss




         

05-21-13 A Detour Through Eternity

Soap bubbles sold out cold
Knocked down up around
The bend in time for free
Kicks dirt on the long road
Over tired rumble tumble
Trash car flash on the fly
Out of sight in one piece
Trigger pulled on the mark
Familiar reality in a voice
So quiet you can smell it




       

05-20-13 The Curse Of The Savage Wolf

Marble eyes of yellow and black
Howling under a crazy bright moon
Running with the pack after midnight
White fangs snarl into a deep growl

Spirit of the evergreen forest alive
Messenger from the dark woodlands
Hunting inside shadows whispering
Out on the prowl with a thirst for blood





         

05-19-13 Treats To Look Forward To

Enchanted daydreams dipped in honey
A little magic stardust sparkling bright
Innocence of Friday night fascination
New and exciting for the very first time
Impossible to sleep with these surprises
Lost in a fantasy world full of characters
Surreal friends animated in imagination
Special enthusiasm growing at home
Wishing for another secret adventure




         

05-18-13 Scientific Lollipop Excitement

Quiet lock look in luck
Sun flip jellybean hammer jar
Snow crystal prism delight
Mirror click denial fixture
Golden days dumped loose
Tough tribulation overcome
Roaring engine traffic pattern
Chocolate bacon salt surprise
Ancient creatures long extinct
Small steps stolen in silence
Warrior soul in deep dispair
Happy endings keep rolling on




     

05-17-13 Dinosaur Archeology Haiku

Gargantuan beasts
On the path to extinction
Digging in the dirt



     

05-16-13 Naked Eye Transmissions

quick flavor sin trouble
delicious mysterious danger
stuck inside a color coded moonbeam

lost soul crazy virus
video spreading digitally insane
magic fire rocket fuel faster than plaster

dried out mashed up
nerve center newspaper pepper
headlines stolen from the future chaos

true championship infection
rubber conscience perfection dance
trapped inside your secret heart weakness



 

05-15-13 Children In The Garden

reality
is what you make of it

sanity
is all in the mind

prosperity
is growing all around us

humanity
is rapidly evolving




         

05-14-13 Poison Apple

Deep in the heart
of the dark woods
the fruit of temptation
offered by an evil witch
in a moment of weakness
taking three bites before falling
deep into an everlasting sleep

05-13-13 Hudson River Graveyard

ghost ship captain sailing
down the Hudson River
always riding on the wind
tempting fates of eternity

super storm slamming
shorelines taking a beating
coastal reckoning upon us
wooden bones resurface

silent voices whispering
ancient human battle cries
echoing out through time
preserved below dark waters





         

05-12-13 Expiration Date

I'm trying so hard
to hold on to everything I cherish
before it all goes away

I'm trying so hard
to do good work in the world
before the sun explodes

I'm trying so hard
to give as much love as I can
before I have to say goodbye





         

05-11-13 Forbidden Heart Confusion

mental duck fever
pitch disco magic
craft puzzles united
frozen sweat drops

quick automatic rain
cherry convertible mix
sneeze clock dolphin
radio motor collapse

broken down wreck
trust luck philosophy
tragic circumstance relief
free position standard

monster command supply
twisted quantum patrol
monkey design flaws
solid spiritual recovery



     

05-10-13 Chelsea Hotel #546

lost writings locked
behind closed doors
chip away old layers
of plain white paint

hidden away inside
secret passage ways
magic marker poems
scribbled on the wall

plastic art show rejects
trying too hard to be cool
flying down the hallway
crashing back to reality

dragged out cold across
the old marble lobby floor
through the front glass door
out onto Twenty Third Street




     

05-09-13 Impurities In The Water

05-08-13 Hot Dog Haiku

Thick sloppy mustard
Hot and juicy off the grill
Crispy toasted buns




       

05-07-13 Tequila Bombs On Bleecker Street

Overlords of darkness
hitting the streets downtown
the traffic lights seem brighter
speeding in yellow taxi cabs
chasing the elusive spark

Falling asleep on the train
riding loose in the middle
straight from Brooklyn
through Manhattan into Queens
and all the way back again




       

05-06-13 Dry Your Teardrops

When my son was born
I promised him
I'd always dry
his precious tears

I didn't know
that babies cry
all day long
for hours on end

So I promise now
to try my best
to dry his tears
whenever I can

If I'm not there
the breeze will blow
and dry those tears
right from his eyes




         

05-05-13 One Tree At A Time

Destruction is burning around
Sounds of death are in the air
Global extinction is upon us
Cities crumbling down to dust

Plant a tree to save the world
Clean the polluted air we breathe
Shade and shelter from the elements
Cultivate nature growing in a garden

Creation of life
Is the highest form
Of human power
In this existence




       

05-04-13 Politics In Hell

straight business
cut hard to the bone
new policies in place
criminal techniques
putting the ball in play
pushed hard on force
swimming with piranhas
warriors fighting death
they smell fresh blood
shut down in a firestorm
pulling off another stunt
knocked you to the ground
humbled by the universe




     

05-03-13 Secret Spaceship Landing Site

We were all one big happy family
Before the giant fireball came
Crashing down from the heavens

The debris field stretched for miles
Little green men were scattered around
Radiation waves and magnetic metals

Then the feds rolled in like vultures
Strange men in black suits and sunglasses
Made us keep our mouths shut about what we saw

Unexplained mysteries of the universe
Fantasy becomes unbelievable reality
Objects flying through the invisible air




       

05-02-13 Simple Slices

hanging up on

living room walls

sleeping late

in the afternoon

dreaming about

champagne waterfalls
